...experience for Spitzer, who had never tried to build a case from an unsorted, unedited stack of e-mail. For more than a month, Dinallo, who runs the investor-protection arm of the office, and a few associates hunkered down, reading the messages at work, over lunch, in bed at home. An empty office became the war room, a place where the staff could read and catalog what turned out to be 94,439 pages of e-mail.

Out of 1 million people, between 15 and 60 will develop serious complications, including encephalitis (swelling of the brain). If the entire U.S. population were to be vaccinated...
...million voters who elected liberal lawyer Roh Moo Hyun as South Korea's new President last week, is concerned about homeland security. He ought to be. North Korea is trying to arm itself with nuclear missiles and seems bent on forcing a showdown with the U.S., which wants to strip the North of its weapons of mass destruction and appears willing to risk war to do so. But during a noisy Seoul street party celebrating Roh's cliff-hanger Dec. 19 victory, Kim, a 26-year-old publishing company employee, says he's not worried about the North...
